Posted: 15 Feb 2021 07:09 AM PST

Sony is expected to bring the Xperia 1 III and the Xperia 10 III very soon.

Samsung Galaxy A12 in for review

Posted: 14 Feb 2021 09:54 AM PST

The Galaxy A12 is among the cheapest members of Samsung's A-series and has been a frequent feature in our trending chart since its launch in December. It's quite different from most of its siblings since it's one of the few Samsung handsets to feature an IPS panel instead of AMOLED, the latter clearly being too expensive a part for the targeted budget. And while the panel didn't get the OLED upgrade the Galaxy A12 still brings quite a few upgrades over its predecessor. For instance, there's a slight bump in the display size - up to 6.5". The Snapdragon 450 has been replaced by the...
